Enter the reserve from the track by the car park
and take the left hand footpath. Again, the sign near the entrance
is referring to the cliff face. Follow the footpath up through the
reserve till you come to Wales :) There is a style here.
Eventually, you will come to a fork in the path. Take the left hand
path and follow your GPS. Be aware that there are sheer drops so
best keep the dogs on lead and kids in hand for the last
part.
This is one of the three base level Fables, Myths and Legends
series of caches. The coordinates above are correct. On the reverse
side of the usual Geocaching card inside the cache container is a
key which you will have to record (please don't remove the
card).
The instructions for the final cache 'King Arthurs View' explain
how to use this key along with the others recorded at the remaining
two base level caches to arrive at the final coordinates for 'King
Arthurs View' itself.
The Other Caches Are:
Fables, Myths and Legends ... The Lost Mermaid - Base level
cache
Fables, Myths & Legends .. Shropshire's Robin Hood - Base
level cache
Fables, Myths & Legends ... King Arthur's View - The Final
Cache
This one definitely comes under the heading of
fable. Ogo's hole is almost certainly just another mine shaft of
which there are many scattered around the hill. It was claimed to
be an entrance to Fairy land and there is the story of the blind
fiddler who entered the hole and never returned. Of course it is
said that occasionally you can still hear his fiddling... Although
there is a large hole (quarried) near the cache, this is not
actually Ogo's hole itself. That is on the English side of the hill
in the middle of a private golf course. Public footpaths do provide
some very pleasant walks in and around the golf course however with
very nice views. Should you decide to try and approach the cache
from this direction please be careful! There are some treachorous
sheer cliff faces between the golf course and the cache.
